Sugarloaf Climb Pictures

Jacob's Ladder is the beginning of the climb. It's very interesting
for two reasons. One is that the entire mountain is made of a particular
kind of rock, that looks like a mix of small stones with cement. But this
small fillet is very different. Some say it's a kind of quartz, but I
believe it's raw metal. The person doing the climb is my friend Matusa.

That part of the climb is easily done just standing and walking
over. It's very adhesive if you keep your weight properly distributed.
It can only be seen from the neighbor city in the other side of Guanabara
Bay tho.

And here you can see Flamengo, Downtown Rio and the national
Santos Dummont airport, which does only Rio - São Paulo flights.
Santos Dummont is considered the true airplane inventor, rather than the
US brothers, as he created the 14-Bis and presented it to the
French Airclub Commission in 1904 being the first documented airplane
flight in history. The Wright Brothers experiment in 1903 was not
documented (Koogan/Houaiss Encyclopedia 1997, p.1448, p.1686).
